How big would the "Terrell Owens Ego" balloon be if Macy's added this to their Thanksgiving Day Parade repertoire?
Will Michael Vick get the NFL Network in his new digs???
Is Patrick Crayton really T.O.'s ventriloquist dummy??
Who gets paid more...The Falcon QB or the Trojan QB??
Apples in your Turkey Dressing...Yay or Nay??
Hogturduckenail - is stuffing 5 animals inside each other and then eating them a sign of the Apocalypse??
What's a more powerful sleep enducer...Tryptophan or the Colts/Falcons game??
You scared? I can't wait to watch this game and have to hold back on telling people what I have riding on it..."Oh, you bet the Jets getting 15? What'd you bet?" ... "Uhhh, some guy on my record-collecting website might make my avatar Boy George and Rosie for 30 days" ... "What?" ... "Could you get me a beer?".
Watch our guy David Harris, he's J.Vilma's replacement at LB and is a monster. Racked up 20 solos in his second start but shouldn't get that many against Dallas since you pass a lot. Him, Clemens, and Revis at corner are the bright spots of the lost season.
Scared ....no........disappointed that the Jets won't be bringing their flashing female fans....yes.
Ahh you saw that in the Times? It's a step up from the old days when they used to throw loose change down to the bottom and watch the minority kids scamper to collect it.
The best thing about Thanksgiving (or as I like to call it, Smokesgiving), besides seein your fam, is watching football all day, single malt scotch, drinking black and tans, mad blunts, and pigging out.
Word up!
1. Pack vs. Lions - This is a rare treat. A very meaningful Turkey Day game...in Detroit, no less! Best game of the day, right out of the chute.
Straight up, but seeing the Lions last two preformances, this will be a Pack fest.
3. Dallas vs. NYJets - Big drop off now. Does Jets/Steelers mean this game could be good or is it gonna be a straight beatdown? Will Patrick Crayton ever STFU?
lol at "big drop off" So far Dallas has faced AFC juggernauts Miami, Buffalo, and NE[/sarcasm] Now they get to face the fearsome Jets!! Roc called Sunday a possible trap game, but I think that might be tomorrow. You're not playing an NFC team bitches!
4. Colts vs. Falcons - Good God it must be hard for NFLN employees to sell this TURD. Thankfully I'll be watching SC vs. the Sun Devils.
Fuck Time Warner and the NFL network!
Left out the college game because I know nothing Lebowski.

[sportsnerd] DUDE. I've been playing in a salary cap/dynasty/keeper fantasy football league for over 15 years now. We use individual defensive players. I can't recall one game over that time span where I've seen a dude rack *20* solos. It's unfuckingreal. I drafted Harris late and for a cheap salary and resisted the temptation to cut him early on when he wasn't playing. Now I'm reaping benefits like a mug. I get to keep him for four years and he's dirt cheap. But more importantly, dude is looking like a manster in the RayRay/Urlacher mold. [/sportsnerd]

Haha. I feel you. I get to see Pops like twice maybe three times a year so the fam thing is a good thing this year. He cool though. I'm not calling it Smokesgiving for nuttin'.

T-I-T-S, Tits! Tits! Tits!
That shit is funny. I need to catch the YouTube vids if they're still up......

Yeah he's fun to watch so far. I'm waiting to see what team with a 4-3 defense scoops Vilma and what we can get in return for him, hopefully his knee isn't that bad. He'll be missed though.
We only have season tickets available because of the new stadium....everyone starts from scratch.
I've never seen anyone here say the Pats had a small fan base??
Yeah, cause I realized you had said it was for the new stadium, so of course there would be season tickets available, although I assume there is a waiting list.
I was making a wisecrack about the Bears/Pats fanbase debate earlier in this thread, from just a few days ago.
From my anecdotal evidence, it would seem the Steelers have the biggest and most far-reaching fanbase. It's kind of a no-brainer that the Bears have much bigger fanbase than the Pats.

I have to disagree.....the Cowboys have to be #1 hands down.....if for no other reason than the surrounding states that don't have a team(NMex/Ark/Ok), let alone the "America's Team" bullshit.
Romo & Barber are both in the top 5 of NFL merchandise sold.
. It's kind of a no-brainer that the Bears have much bigger fanbase than the Pats.
See, and I argue that while I believe the Bears have a deeper, longer-lasting fanbase, I think people are underestimating the size and passion of the Pat's fanbase in 2007. I mean, y'all do understand how big New England is, right? They are the team for 5 states and then some ... and people around here ride HARD for this team, despite how huge and successful the Sox are. 2006 Harris poll had the two teams even, which doesn't cover every aspect of fanhood/devotion, but does at least show that they are not as far apart as people seem to think. Bears get the nod for old-school depth, but people thinking the Pats are some newjack franchise with a bunch of bandwagoners are WAY off base. I live here. I KNOW how crazy people are about the Pats. It's the Red Sox that have the bandwagon riders - Pats fans run deep and devoted.
One thing that always struck me as funny is that for years (especially before the Pats were started in the early 60's and for a few years after) the most popular football team in New England was the New York Giants. There are still, to this day, people in this region who ride or die for the Giants. Their games were shown on TV and played on the radio around here for decades. There was a time when the NFC was GOD.

Too many people hate the Cowboys. In every sportsbar I've ever been to in any state, the Steelers fans seem to be the most numerous and vociferous.
I'm not talking about "this team appeals to fans in these states because they *don't* have teams". Shit, I'll see your NM, Ark, Okie and raise you a "Gulf Coast", Steelers got fans in all area codes. That seventies shit was serious and far-reaching.
And thank you for yet again pointing out to me why I just really despise that franchise: the arrogance. F*ck man, you should know as well as I do, half of D/FW don't even root for the 'Boys unless they're winning.

I feel ya on all counts. I'm talking *tentacles*, dawg.
The top 3 in my mind would be:
Steelers Bears Packers 3b. Cowboys
This is based on the fanship you see of these teams in places way the hell away, and how much of the fans show up and represent at road games.
Perfect example: when Pitt played at AZ, the stadium was almost 50/50.
And yes, the Steel come in first, but the Bears are tied with the Pats at 6th. I'm certainly not surprised to see the Pack and Cowboys ahead of the Bears, but the Colts? Do people really like them? I guess any Super Bowl winner gets a bump, but damn, there must be a lot of Colts fans that just aren't as loud or boisterous as fans of the other teams, huh?

Yes...a Super Bowl winner will get the automatic bump due to lame folks who jump on any winners bandwagon.
Cowboys have sucked for 10 years and are still near the top.

Everywhere I've gone in the U.S.--including Alaska and Hawaii--I found fellow Steelers fans without much trouble. We're everywhere, son!

Prices went up 150% across the board.
A "cheap seat" will now be $360.00 and an annual parking pass(8 games) will be $750.00.

I'm not completely sold on "most hated" = "most popular". See the NBA, everybody hates the Spurs outside of some select counties in Central Texas.
J-E-T-S, JETS, JETS, JETS!!!! MAKE THIS THANKSGIVING A VERY SPECIAL ONE. BEAT THE 'BOYS AND PANTS ROMO!!!!!!!
Everywhere I've gone in the U.S.--including Alaska and Hawaii--I found fellow Steelers fans without much trouble. We're everywhere, son!
That was embarrasing.
Any Cheese Heads out there want to become a Romosexual??
Cowboys looked good yesterday, not great, but pretty damn good.
Now if I can just figure out a way to get Sween, GV and Philly Phill to post consecutively.
